    You know who believed in empathy? Jesus.

    You know who would have given Charlie Kirk the side eye for saying it was a made up concept? Jesus.

    You know who would have flipped a fucking table if he saw people profiting from his name while saying shit like “empathy is made up”? Jesus.

    Would Jesus love Charlie Kirk? Of course, he loves everyone regardless of their sins.

    Would Jesus have liked Charlie Kirk? That’s very debatable. Prove me wrong 🙏

      Kirk had a net worth of like 15 million. Jesus would not have liked him.

      Imagine if you were a comedian, really committed to your bit, posing as maga long-term and rolling out a glorious burn linking kirk to judas and everyone just takes your statement at face value. Nehls is a misunderstood comedic genius!

    Kirk would not have given up his worldly possessions to follow Jesus. He also would not have followed the other instructions.

    Troy Nehls is an idiot who should be removed from office. All republicans should be removed from office.

      Not even in the Apocrypha, in Acts 12 they voted to replace Judas with Matthias. And then later in 1st Corinthians 15, Paul claimed to be an apostle. So, not even counting the apocrypha, at best Kirk would be the 15th.

      Fundies have nothing to do with the pope, and almost nothing to do with Christianity.

    Jesus would have flipped a table at him, no doubt. Then go chill with some prostitutes.
